Notes: Bought it from a family in East LA. The Nephew had the Ranchero parked and did not want to continue restoring it because he had a project falcon in the works. He wanted to "get rid of it" LUCKY ME!!!
He said his uncle gave it to him and he let it sit for a couple years, but before that it was a daily driver.

Look at that trim! It's amazing that it is still in good shape around the windows and around the bed. Can't wait to start the project!!!!

Steering wheel feels good, pretty tight, column not so tight. Missing the emblem.

Needs some carpet, looks like someone went wild with it in the 70' s with some cool shag carpeting. Easy fix.
